Who are we?
Like the Succulents, they are resilient to dry climate, Community Flower Studio (CFS) aims to inspire youth to survive tough circumstances. Through our various creative workshops, CFS members share life skills with young people facing mental health challenges through face-to-face interactions and assist them in finding meaningful employment!
